The first world classical tamil conference got off to a rousing start here on Wednesday with a host of speakers, led by President Pratibha Devisingh Patil, hailing the glory of Tamil, which has the oldest literature among the living languages of the world.

Inaugurating the five-day world classical tamil conference, the President said many concepts intrinsic to India’s society and critical to its polity were found in Tamil discourse over the millennia. The message of peace, universality and the spirit of equality were propounded in a Sangam poem more than 2000 years ago.

She presented the ‘Kalaignar M. Karunanidhi Classical Tamil Award’ to Asko Parpola, a renowned Indologist, for his work on the Dravidian hypothesis in the interpretation of the Indus script. According to the Indologist, the Dravidian language was very close to Old Tamil.

Governor Surjit Singh Barnala, who handed over the first copy of the world classical tamil conference souvenir to Ms. Patil, referred to the influence of the Tamil language in several important language families of the world and said it had been ever growing.

Presiding over the inauguration of the world classical tamil conference, Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi said there was a consensus all over the world that Tamil possessed greater merits than 11 parameters laid down for declaring a language classical. It was after the declaration of Tamil as a classical language [in October 2004] that such a meet was being organised for the first time.

Inaugurating theworld classical tamil conference, President Pratibha Patil praised Tamil language and said it reflected the heritage of the country, which was now following an inclusive growth paradigm to benefit all, particularly those in rural areas.

“As our nation progresses economically, we have sought to follow an inclusive growth paradigm so that growth brings benefits to all sections of society,” she said.

The President said, “The history of Tamils is our nation’s pride. Many concepts intrinsic to India’s society and basic to its polity are found in Tamil discourse over the millennium.

For example, respect for each other’s religion has long been part of Tamil cultural tradition.” Reciting a Tamil saying ‘Thiraikadal odiyum thraviyam thedu’ (earn wealth even if one has to go abroad), she said their hard work was depicted in the saying even during the Sanga period.

The state had been a source of both Shaivite and Vaishnavite philosophies while a ‘substantial body’ of work exists on Jain and Buddhist beliefs, as well as on Islam and Christianity, she said.

“A principal tenet of the Constitution of our country is to secure social, economic and political voice to every adult citizen of the country. Universal Adult Franchise and our democratic framework have given a political voice to every adult citizen of the country,” she said, pointing out that adult franchise was in practice even during Chola dynasty rule in the state.

She also praised Tamil Nadu for leading in social reform, fighting social biases and working to achieve a society where all would be treated with equality.

Ms. Patil said she has a special place for Tamil Nadu and recalled that it was in Chennai that she began her campaign for the Presidential elections. She also said that her first tour out of Delhi (as President) was to the state to address youth at Rajiv Gandhi National Institute if Youth Development.

““Hence, I believe my presence at this conference is a part of my continuing association with the state,” Ms. Patil said.

Praising the Tamil ethos, the President said that they were based on pluralism, tolerance and huministic approach and contributed towards the country from the early days to the present day.

“Tamil language, with its vibrancy and richness, has made India a proud multilingual society,” she said, adding Tamils such as poet Subramanya Bharathy had contributed to the freedom movement. She said Mahatma Gandhi had wanted to learn Tamil, especially to study the Tamil treatise Tirukkural.

Earlier, she gave away the first Kalaignar Karunanidhi Classical Tamil Award to Finnish scholar Asko Parpola.

The award contains a citation, a cheque for Rs 10 lakh and a statuette of saint Tamil poet, Tiruvalluvar.

Accepting the award, Parpola said the Government of India had rightly announced Tamil as a classical language due to its antiquity. Many critical scholars had agreed that even Rig Veda had spoken about half a dozen Dravidian languages, he said.

Mr. Karunanidhi in his address in world classical tamil conference said Tamils should take note of the future growth of the language and plan its development in different spheres of human endeavour like literature, comparative studies, language studies, translation, history, philosophy, humanities and folklore.

“We have to plan and enthuse further meaningful research on these areas and encourage intense research on archaeological findings from the Indus valley through Adichnalur and Kumarikkandam, that was swallowed by the sea,” he said.

He said this world classical tamil conference was the first after Tamil got the classical language status and was different from the previous eight World Tamil Conferences.

Tamil was not only an international language, but like a mother for all world languages, he said.

Karunanidhi said he had always served the cause of the language, irrespective of whether he was in power or not.

T Sivathambi, Tamil scholar from Sri Lanka, said Tamil was the oldest Dravidian language of India. “It is an official language in six or seven countries and rightly deserves to be a classical language.”

Mr. Karunanidhi said that almost all world languages have some words originating from Tamil. “Hence Tamil has the status of the first mother tongue in the world,” Karunanidhi claimed.

Quoting from Sangha period and the Mahabharatha, he said there were 11 well-defined yardsticks for a language to be termed classical -- antiquity, individuality,common character, neutrality, parental kinship, linguistic principles, literary prowess, noble ideas and ideals, culture, art and wisdom born of experiences.

“That Tamil possesses all these merits has been accepted unanimously not only by scholars in Tamil Nadu and other Tamil scholars in the rest of India, but by foreigners who learnt the language and attained enviable proficiency in Tamil,” he said.

In his address, Tamil Nadu Governor Surjit Singh Barnala said the richness of Tamil and its growth was that as a hoary language, it has its deep roots in almost all important languages families of the world.

“Development of a language depends on its reach, richness and growth, without losing its purity of standard and pristine form,” Mr. Barnala said.

He said the conference would work on modalities for further promotion of Tamil studies and Tamil research at global level.

While Thirukkural was the ‘crown’ of Tamil language and Sangam literature, Kamba Ramayanam and Silapathikarm were the jewels of Tamil language, Barnala said, adding that they bore testimony that Tamil language has a special claim for being a classical language.

the much awaited more of hindi film the ravan movie releasing, unfortunately i dint get the ticket for the first day show for ravan film , one of my friend made it , he is a hard core abhishek fan , so i was just waiting to hear from him about the first hand ravan movie review

then i just went around the net for more critical views on ravan movie review , i know i am not going to get anything new with this online ravan movie review either but just googled around (did encounter lots of spam blogs on the way) , finally made it to what was looking for "the ravan movie review " by behindwoods.com

ravan movie preview

(ravan movie preview tickets will be available on 17th june)Dev falls in love with Ragini, a Sapunky classical dancer who is a unconventional as him. They get married and he takesup his new post in abhishekasingapuram, a small town in southern India. A town where the word of law is not the police but Veera, a tribal who has, over the years, shifted the power equation of the place from the ruling to the have-nots of the area.

Dev knows that the key tp bringing order to any place is to vanquish the big fish; in this case - veera. In one stroke Dev manges to rip open Veera's world, and set in motion a chain of events which will claim lives, change fortunes. Veera, injured but enraged hits back starting a battle that draws Dev, Veera and Ragini into the jungle. The jungle which is dense, confusing, scary. And in this journey they must confront their own truth. A journey which will test their beliefs, convictions and emotions. Emotions which are as scary and confusing as the forest.

(ravan movie review)The forest becomes the battleground. The battle between good and evil, between dev and veera, between Ram and ravan. But when the lines dividing good and evil are blurring fast whose side will you take. When hate turns to love and good starts looking evil, which side will you battle for? Love is a battle that nobody wins but everyone must fight.

If ravan is providing a huge opportunity to anyone, then it has to be abhishek. Well, any actor will benefit hugely from a Mani Ratnam film. But,in ravan movie review abhishek has got an extra special opportunity this time; something that no actor in world cinema has got to do - playing protagonist and antagonist (if there is a clear-cut distinction) of the same story in different versions. As ravan in hindi and as Rama in Hindi; this is one movie that will prove abhishek’s versatility beyond doubt. One can says in ravan movie reviewfor sure that his fame is sure to spread much farther with ravan. Aishwarya Rai seems to be a blessed actress; very few get three Mani Ratnam films in their career, this lady has. It will be enchanting to see the ‘most beautiful lady of India’ (supposedly) play the highly revered Sita. Priyamani gets a huge opportunity, so do Prithviraj and Munna. And, there will be a whole lot of highly respected faces like Karthik and Prabhu.

Police officer Dev (Prithviraj) falls in love with a spunky classical dancer Ragini (Aishwarya Rai). They get married and Dev is posted in abhishekasingarapuram, a small tribal town in South India. Enter Veera, the warlord and law enforcer who controls the people of the town. In one stroke Dev manages to upset Veera's world and change his fortunes.

An injured enraged Veera hits back by kidnapping Ragini. He takes her into the dense, confusing and scary jungle. The dense forest becomes the battleground between Dev and Veera.

The battle between Dev and Veera, good and evil, Ram and Raavan! Who will win? Watch out for ravan, which is all set to grace theatres on June 18, 2010.

seen the movie ? what have you got to got to rant about ravan movie ? give your personal experience about ravan movie

the ravan movie review by gallata.com states that ravan, said to be the modern adaptation of the epic Ramayana, revolves around Raavana, the ruler of Lanka, who kidnapped Sita. The story culminates with Sita supporting Raavana instead of Rama, who suspects her chastity after having spent so much time in Raavana's custody.
